He initiated it but Steph flew out to Hamptons to close

Should it have been “or”? I mean, are you both? How is it physically possible to be both at the same time? You should let us know. It not that I’m interested. Just curious.

The grammar card; last bastion of the thoroughly vanquished.
Just wondering. So are you both or just one of the two? I’m genuinely curious as to which of the three you are.
I don't play those cards, amb, ever.
It's my religion.
Bring a chicken is your religion. Gotcha.
Come ta Pappy.

Sorry I TOTALLY disagree with you on a player's RIGHT to disrespect the flag. Professional athletes are paid exorbitant amounts of money to PLAY... They are NOT paid that money to make political statements while they are getting paid to play! If I started blathering on and on with MY political opinions and wore a shirt with a political statement when I was getting paid to work, management would politely call me into an office, close the door and politely and pointedly tell me that while I have a right to my opinions, they hired me to do the job they are paying me to do... NOT to express my political opinions on THEIR time.. Further, they would tell me to go home and put on a work appropriate shirt with NO political statement on it.. and then come back to work. I have 3 Let's Go Brandon t shirts that I wear regularly.. but I would NEVER consider wearing them at work because it would be inappropriate to do so.
Undoubtedly, they would also tell me that if I refused, I WOULD be fired.
Players DO NOT have a right to force their political opinions on the fans by kneeling, making gestures, or wearing uniforms with political statements on them while playing.
If said players were really THAT passionate about something, there are appropriate times and places to express their opinions. Doing so while you are being paid to play is NOT one of those appropriate times...PERIOD.. no arguments by you or anyone else on this issue
Players are paid to play the game, that's true. Wearing political or social awareness shirts before or after the game is not a problem. Warming up pre game or answering questions to the media is not their job. Playing ball is their job. Wearing those types of shirts over their uniforms while they play during an actual game would be a problem. If you chose to wear a Let's Go Brandon tshirt before you go to work and after when you're done, same thing. Once you clock in, then you wear appropriate work clothes. Plus, seems like the owners and the teams supported the players. Their bosses didn't say don't wear them. Where's the problem?
Also, taking a knee during the anthem is not disrespecting the flag. For years, that's how it's been described, and inaccurately. People kneel in church, people kneel to kings and queens. Kneeling can actually be a form of reverence. Kneeling for the anthem is a protest, but not disrespect. Jumping up and down screaming " you" middle fingers out at the flag during the anthem is disrespect. Kneeling quietly to make a political or social awareness statement is actually a respectful way to protest. Whether you agree with it or not is your right. It's not disrespect.
Well said Jam.
People ahem JerryJines never understood this..plus a military vet said kneeling would be better than sitting.
these sensitive white Americans. White guy dressing as a Sharman Carrying the confederate flag, a flag of the losing side of a civil war that ended more than a century ago, into the capitol building, is perfectly ok and even patriotic. Yet a black guy kneeling down to the current flag is unacceptably disrespectful.
It’s hilarious.
I didn't see Kaep kneeling when he was a primetime starting QB, only when he fell off the face of the earth and became a backup - then suddenly he is a social justice warrior with a flared out afro.
We should just stop playing the anthem, imo. It's a age old tradition, but if it's gonna cause a bunch of ruckus and athletes constantly thinking that they need to inform us of their political opinions, then let's squash it and get on with the games.
This tbh. Don't have a problem with the message, but Kraep; he was losing his place in the spotlight and couldn't handle it.
Ducks has never been to a Rockets game. People disrespect the anthem every ing game. And they have for as long as I’ve been alive and most likely since before I’ve been alive. I’d rather have people kneeling quietly than hear drunk idiots scream “Yeah Go Rockets!” every ing time the singer says And the rockets red glare…
White supremicists totally fine with rosanne making a mockery of the national anthem just because she also hates coloured people and immigrants.
Lol people forgetting and then rewriting history.
Kaepernick started kneeling after a conversation and at the suggestion of Nate Boyer, a former Army Green Beret, to be a more respectful form of protesting. Yeah, respectful. Initially he just sat during the anthem.
End of 2015 and summer of 2016, there were several higher profile police killings of black men. The timing did coincide with Kaepernick struggling and getting benched. But it's pretty easy to google or wiki the timeline of police killings that led up to the start of him protesting. Start with the Mario Woods killing in the Bay Area end of 2015, and the killings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling in the summer of 2016. And the timeline of him kneeling follows those incidents.
it doesn't belong in domestic games like MLB, NBA, NFL etc
Only when you Represent your Nation.
In Europe it is rare to have a Anthem Playing outside of European play.
